David Tennant's play Good to be broadcast to cinemas in UK and worldwide
Tennant is currently starring in the CP Taylor play at the Harold Pinter Theatre in London.
The National Theatre has announced that the West End production of GOOD, starring David Tennant, will be broadcast to cinemas worldwide.
GOOD, which is currently on at the Harold Pinter Theatre in London until 24th December, stars Tennant as Professor John Halder, a German academic who thinks he is a ‘good’ man. However, as the prospect of the Second World War approaches, he finds himself pulled into a movement with unthinkable consequences.
The 1981 play by CP Taylor was previously made into a 2008 film starring Viggo Mortensen, Jason Isaacs and Jodie Whittaker, but now Tennant's version, which also stars Elliot Levey (Cabaret) and Sharon Small (The Bay) and has been directed by Dominic Cooke, will be broadcast to cinemas as part of the National Theatre Live programme in 2023.
On behalf of production company Fictionhouse, producer Kate Horton said: "We are thrilled to be partnering with NT Live to make our production of GOOD available across the UK and worldwide."
Horton continued: "CP Taylor’s play is a powerful and timely message, and this broadcast will allow audiences to connect with the play, Dominic Cooke’s extraordinary production and David Tennant’s brilliant lead performance long beyond our run at the Harold Pinter Theatre."
